NEW black glossy HTC Home

[spencepu3]

Hey guys, I got bored with the same old looking HTC Home today plugin on my device so I decided to fiddle around a little bit with the .png's and this is what I came up with. If you like the look just unzip the folder attached and put the file into your HTC home folder and replace the old file with it. You might want to back up the old file in case you want to switch back to it sometime.

THIS IS NOT A NEW INSTALL OF HTC HOME, IT IS MORE OR LESS JUST A SKIN FOR IT. YOU MUST ALREADY HAVE HTC HOME TODAY PLUGIN INSTALLED TO USE IT.

enjoy.

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but where is the HTC Home folder?

[spencepu3]

not a stupid question, it should be in the main device folder where your windows, temp, and program files folders are located

[elroyel1327]

Weird, it's not there - shame, your mod looks really nice.

[spencepu3]

hmm, you probably have a rom wth the HTC home plugin written into it. You could try just putting the file into your windows folder and see if it asks if you want to replace the file with the new one, see if that works!

It's also possible that you have the HTC Home plug-in for WM6, which installs to \HTCHome by default..

Found the file location - spencepu3 was right, the files on my phone (DopodD810/Trinity/WM6) were installed right into the Windows directory.

The 'skin' looks really nice spencepu3 - I suspect you may have started a trend now!

it seems that you guys haven't used emunutz's HTC Home Customizer (version 1.0b5 right now). pretty complete customization of the plugin, including clock font, clock color, skin, icon packages, weather icons, etc.

thanks for the skin though, it's nice to look at.

I have used emunutz's program but as you can see there are no background skins that look like mine, I happen to like the look of mine over the skins in his package

Hello,

I Like that Glossy Style, but for me it is a little bit to glossy. Can you make the glossy part more black and less white, like the top and buttom bar?

Thanks

[spencepu3]

sure, when I get some free time, maybe tomorrow, I will make a seperate one a little darker for you. However, why would you want it any darker, especially with your black background the bars will barely be seen, this way they stand out more which I like, but if thats what you want I can make it, it shouldnt take long

[anja31]

Oh what a quick reply!

Black is beautiful > I think so.

Thanks for your work, I will look forward to it.

Cheers & regards

@anja31: What is the bar with the 4 buttons over the softkeys? Looking for that for a while now, so I can hide the softkeys^^

I installed it and it looks great ! Any way of making it all Gloss Black. I set it up through my htc home customizer...sweet :)

Hey
How did you get ur screen to look like that? Are you running the green wm6 and black htc theme at the same time? i suspect you have the green wallpaper instead. pls let me know. I have been trying to figure it out all day.

[matrix2fly]

Never mind...... Extract wallpaper file from .tsk and rename to .jpg
Easy enough.
